If the copyright holder distributes the material under GPL, I would be surprised that a court would find redistributing that same material under GPL invalid. The copyright holder obviously believes that the hex dump is the "preferred method of modification" in this case - why else would it be distributed under GPL instead of some "no modifications, no redistributions" -license? -- * Sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology (T.P) * * PGP public key available @ http://www.iki.fi/killer * -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
